The Dark Precursor

International Conference on Deleuze and Artistic Research

Orpheus Institute, Ghent, Belgium

9 – 11 November 2015

darkprecursor.org

 

Deadline for submissions: Monday, 1 June 2015

The International Conference on Deleuze and Artistic Research (DARE
2015) explores possibilities, uses and appropriations of Gilles Deleuze
and/or Félix Guattari’s philosophy in the field of Artistic Research.
Organised by Music Experiment 21 (ME21) and hosted by the Orpheus Institute,
DARE 2015 welcomes submissions from all artists and artist-researchers
specifically interested in Deleuze and/or Guattari’s philosophy, as well
as from all scholars of Deleuze and/or Guattari with a specific
interest in artistic research.

The notion of the dark precursor concerns the question of how a
communication between heterogeneous systems, “of couplings and
resonance,” occurs without being predetermined. In relation to artistic
research we ask how to compose these resonances, how to create new
couplings that are not accidental but rigorous and at the same time
indeterminate. How to create in the midst of a primordial difference?

Experimental Geography: Radical Approaches to Landscape, Cartography, and Urbanism 

"A photo of a secret CIA prison. A map designed to help visitors reach
Malibu’s notoriously inaccessible public beaches. Guidebooks to
factories, prisons, and power plants in upstate New York. An artificial
reef fabricated from 500 tons of industrial waste. These are some of the
more than one hundred projects represented in Experimental Geography, a groundbreaking
collection of visual research and mapmaking from the past ten years.

Experimental Geography explores
the distinctions between geographical study and artistic experience of
the earth, as well as the juncture where the two realms collide (and
possibly make a new field altogether). This lavishly illustrated book
features more than a dozen maps; artwork by Francis Alÿs, Alex Villar,
and Yin Xiuzhen; and recent projects by The Center for Land Use
Interpretation, the Raqs Media Collective, and the Center for Urban
Pedagogy.

The collection is framed by essays by bestselling author Trevor Paglen, Jeffrey Kastner, and editor Nato Thompson".
